1985

August 1985 - The photo is signed, "Love to Tombo, Aug. '85, Mimi."

Tombo was the nickname Richard gave to Tom Costner, who was the best man at Mimi and Richard's secret Paris wedding. Tom and Mimi remained friends, and he was one of Mimi's caretakers in the end (♥ Forever grateful).

 He wrote reviews of the film adaptation of Been Down So Long and the Long Time Coming musical. Source Mimi and Richard Fariña website - no longer online. Photo by (?)
